Section 3 – Booking Process

3.1 Online booking

The sales agreement becomes valid once the payment has been made online and the customer views the Order Confirmation Page. As a recap of the order, the customer will receive a Confirmation Order e-mail sent to the e-mail address he/she provided. The Order Confirmation e-mail is for informational purposes only.

3.2 Security Check

Upon placing a booking on our website or an affiliated platform and receiving the Order Confirmation, your order may be placed on "security check" by our payment security department. You will subsequently receive an e-mail or phone call indicating which documents you need to provide us with via e-mail or fax, in order for PLATINIUM GROUP to validate your payment. Several reasons exist for placing your order on "security check" status, i.e. a mismatch between elements such as IP Address (country of your computer’s connection), country of the credit card, delivery address, a high order amount, etc. This security procedure is necessary in order to prevent credit card fraud. Should you receive a "security check" e-mail or phone call after placing your order, it means that your order is not confirmed and will be subject to further documentation that you will have to submit in order for us to verify the authenticity of the order. Please note that any documentation you provide during the security check procedure will be deleted after 1 year. The data is needed for security check processing, and is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims and charge backs.
